silverbullet said:I nearly went this rute during inital purchase and was hesitant for double the price. I should have gone this rote to begin with I bet. What is the best path to follow for this upgrade? Parts house, salvage? Should I ditch the proportoning valve and just go with an adjustable?
Anyone what to purchase a nearly new vac booster and MC. Less than 1k miles.

Do a hydroboost search on this site before making any decisions. There are zillions of threads and lots of good information. Junkyard swaps are perfectly viable and cheap, as long as you don't mind a little fab work. I sold my vacuum setup on Ebay for enough to cover most of the hydroboost cost. It would have covered all of it if I hadn't gone with a brand new master cylinder, but I don't like used ones so it was worth it to me. You could re-use the one on your vacuum booster but the brake lines hook up on the wrong side when attached to the h-boost unit, making the connections awkward.
However you go about it I can guarantee you'll be happy with the results.
